We have laughed at this letter chain for almost a decade - I collected those letters myself a few years ago. They are funny!

The National Debtline may wish to read the above as part of the learning curve about these scams, which are NOT debts.

IGNORE the debt collector drivel.

Just do not ignore a court claim; those must be defended. But they do NOT come from debt collector call centres!

People think there is always a "next step", sometimes you just stop digging.

Hi All,

Apologies for duplication but I have received a COURT action for a unpaid charge. They captured my number by using a ANPR camera which took a picture of me entering and leaving the carpark. If I was honest I didn't read or notice the PARKING SIGNS, and also in my defense I was only parked for 10 mins to collect something for a very good friend of mine, whom wife has died and I thought I help by collecting the item from the store as I worked near by. So my intentions was honorable, it wasn't until 4 weeks later i received this parking charge notice, that I haven't paid for a ticket and the charge was "insufficient paid time". I have taken to the ignore method, as I have been speaking to others whom have fell into the same trap as me, and for the sake of helping a good friend, I am now lumbered with a parking charge for £160.00.

I am little concerned as to what to do and how to go about contesting it, as I feel - again reading through the forums that its a scam, but just be my luck that it actually goes to court.

I have read the newbie section - as instructed, but I found it a little confusing.

So what I am looking for is how do contest it? or what to do next?

I be grateful for any advice received.

Many Thanks in advance.

Bumped for those who think we need to see more debt collector letters.
